EastEnders star Jessie Wallace stunned fans after showing off her new makeover.

The 52-year-old actress, best known for playing Kat Slater, opted for blonde in her latest selfie.

While some fans questioned if the photo was Jessie playing about with the ‘filters,’ others were here for the colour switch.

One person commented: ‘Looks amazing , I’ve just watched a classic eastenders and in one scene you asked zoe if you would suit blonde hair the answer is definitely yes xx’

Another agreed: ‘Ooh it’s a yes from me, looking like a young Madonna xx’

EastEnders star Shona McGarty (Whitney Dean) added: ‘ERM…. WOW 🤩 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.’

In current storylines, Kat believes that her ex-husband Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) had been given the all clear after doctors confirmed that he had prostate cancer, only to be left gobsmacked when he revealed the truth.

Kat and Alfie have always had a close bond, even despite their rocky relationships.

For this reason, Alfie is silently pleased when Kat agrees to accompany him to the hospital for his first hormone injection.

Kat has not been Alfie’s only supporter, as Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) has stood by his side during this difficult time, refusing to let him go through his prostatectomy alone.

What Kat doesn’t know is that Alfie is harbouring a huge secret about Kat’s husband Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden).

After a heated row during which Kat admonished Phil for keeping Alfie’s cancer scare from her, Phil slept with Emma Harding (Patsy Kensit), just days before his wedding.

It wasn’t long before Alfie found out, and battled with whether or not to tell Kat, before ultimately deciding against it, agreeing with Phil to keep his secret as long as Phil kept his true cancer results a secret in return.
